Link embedding in discussions and comments in the rich editor is not working after updating to the latest 2021.009 version, it was working fine in 2021.008 and previous versions, I didn’t change anything.
I just tested it again and found something strange-
I tried this post's link and it worked!
Then I tried other links (YouTube, Twitter, etc.), and it didn't work.
Then I tried this post's link again, and it didn't work this time.
So when I click the new discussion button and add this post's link first, it works, but if I add this post's link after trying other links, it doesn't work.
I can share my forum link in PM if you would like to check it.

Are there errors in the developer console? (press the F12 key)

Thanks for your response @Bleistivt,
I'm not seeing any error in the developer console, I also checked server logs and didn't find anything related to Vanilla.
Kind Regards
So links do not get expanded into embeds like this?
Check if your forum can make curl requests. Are the statistics in the dashboard working?

Yes, the statistics are working fine in the dashboard, and the links don't expand like the above example anymore.

Thank you so much for your help :)

Just to make sure: Are you pressing the Enter after entering each link?

Yes, I press Enter but it doesn't expand.
Any update for this issue?
Unfortunately, no solution yet ☹️ My only hope is that the next update will fix the problem.
I found something. Just add # at the end of the links. 😃
@rizamuharram, I just tested and it’s working with the #, any thoughts on this @Bleistivt ?
Does it work if embedding with a mobile link?

@Kaspar Yes it was working, maybe due to the # in the URL? I have no idea.
However, I updated to the latest version, and it's working fine now 👍️
